All/Most Biome Island - Sandbox or Endgame Story Mode

[madcapbiblio]

So this island could be one you get to either in Sandbox mode or as part of the endgame for Story Mode after you've found Adam's Island and unlocked all the genes. The premise is this:

 

This is one large island and from the intro port into the center of the island is grassland/savanna. This part is generic, has some trees and bunnils and bearyeana. It isn't too hard to survive, but it also doesn't support a very large population.

 

On each side of this grassland is a different type of biome, so this island would have to be very large. A river, or small strip of grassland, could mark the edges of the biomes. This could also be a boundry for the predators too.

As many biomes as possible would be represented, with Jungle, Swamp, Savanna, and Mountain all present on a single island. The temperature details would even work because if it gets cold on the mountain there's a blizzard, while in the savanna and the Jungle your NIchelings get a break from the burning heat. The reverse is also true.

 

The idea for this island is to start with two, or at least a small group of Nichelings, and then develop different trait lines for your Nichelings to survive in the different biomes. The food would still be shared, to help balance the difficulty, and you could have some Nichelings remain living in the center to help support the other genetic lines. You could also develop a swimming line for the ocean/rivers.

 

There could also be a new achievement for having multiple lines survive on this island? I haven't considered how that would work, but I am open to suggestions.
